My treasure bowl connects the past and present; I've won everything on my journey into exile.
Chapter 75: Enemy or Friend?
Inside the escort room.
Hearing the commotion outside, Xiao Liu wanted to go out and see what was going on, but Lao Wei stopped him.
"Brother Wei, aren't you going out to check? Aren't you afraid someone will die?" Xiao Liu asked, looking puzzled.
Isn't Brother Wei the one who hates troublemakers the most?
Why aren't they ignoring it this time?
"You're so stupid, you won't admit it." Old Wei shook his head.
"Little Liu, you still have a lot to learn. Lin Mo is a very shrewd woman; she would never cause a death in public."
Besides, "He who eats another's food is bound to be obligated, and he who takes another's gifts is obligated to be ...ed to be obliged to be obliged to be obliged to be obliged to be obliged to be obliged to be
That woman was very shrewd.
Xiao Liu suddenly realized and nodded:
"Oh, then I won't worry about it. I'm really embarrassed to say it."
In the courtyard of the post station:
"Did you see clearly? The woman hitting people looks like Xu Xianyu, the eldest daughter of the Xu family."
"Yes, it's her. But that man seems to be Han Qi, the eldest son of the Han family. What's going on? Is Han Qi a lecherous scoundrel?"
"No way, could I be seeing things?"
……
Madam Han, who was about to help Han Yulong inside, stopped in her tracks when she heard someone mention her son's name.
Turning around, she glared at the person next to her with displeasure:
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Don't drag every Tom, Dick, and Harry into this. My son, Han Qicai, is no lecher.
The people around her didn't tolerate her either, and sneered:
"Can't you see for yourself?"
"That's right, we're not blind, we wouldn't mistake someone for someone else."
……
Madam Han glared at them with a livid face, then released Han Yulong and turned to walk forward.
Upon closer inspection, her expression changed drastically.
The person who was beaten was indeed her son, Han Qi.
Madam Han screamed, "Stop! Stop it! Stop hitting me!"
……
Han Yulong, who had been left behind, glared resentfully at Madam Han's figure before trembling as she walked inside.
Between her and her older brother, her mother would always choose her older brother.
She was freezing; she needed to go inside and warm herself by the fire. It was so cold.
When she saw Xu Wuyan standing at the door, her voice trembled:
"cousin……"
Xu Wuyan scoffed coldly:
"Don't worry, I'll go talk to your dad later. As for you, I won't talk to you."
To solve a problem, we must start from its source.
……
Meanwhile, Madam Han rushed over and immediately roared angrily at Xu Xianyu, who was still hitting her son:
"Xu Xianyu, stop right now."
He's your cousin Han Qi, how could you hit him?
"Han Qi?" Xu Xianyu sneered.
"Then he should be beaten even more. After studying the classics for so many years, he knew there were people in the bathhouse, yet he still lurked around outside. It's obvious he had ulterior motives."
After the scolding, another blow with the stick.
"Ahhh!"
Han Qi screamed again. This time, he couldn't hold back any longer. His legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground.
Seeing this, Madam Han was almost driven mad with anger:
"Stop it right now, and shut your stinking mouth."
I've already said, my son isn't that kind of person.
Xu Xianyu snorted coldly, stood next to Lin Mo who had walked over, and said directly:
"Sister-in-law, as soon as I got dressed, I noticed someone sneaking around outside."
I picked up a piece of firewood from inside to use as a weapon and came out. As soon as I came out, I saw him sneaking around and looking around at the door of another bathhouse. I was afraid that the people inside the bathhouse were in danger, so I attacked him.
I never expected this scoundrel to be Han Qi; he's utterly shameless.
As she spoke, she spat directly at Han Qi, who had been helped up by Madam Han.
"Sis, thank goodness I finished showering quickly and came out. Otherwise, with him staring at me like that, my reputation would be ruined!"
Standing at the kitchen door, Xu Xianyu patted her chest in fear, looking terrified.
Xu Xianyu was both shocked and angry. "What? You took a bath in this bathhouse before?"
Han Qi, are you even human?
You actually tried to ruin my sister's reputation? You... are you even human?
Han Qi's face turned a deep purplish-red:
"False accusation! False accusation!"
Madam Han, supporting her son, glared angrily at Xu Xianyu:
"What nonsense are you spouting?"
My son isn't that kind of person, why would he ruin her reputation?
"Who knows what dirty thoughts he might have?" Xu Xianyu scoffed, her eyes cold.
"I'm afraid he's after my sister."
Upon hearing this, Madam Han laughed, her face filled with disdain.
"Even if you sisters were to pay me to enter the Han family, I would not allow you to step foot in my door."
With my son's talent and the Han family's background, what kind of girl couldn't he marry? He doesn't need to make a move on you; don't flatter yourself."
Upon hearing this, the onlookers immediately burst into laughter.
Do they still think they're in the capital?
Who is really trying to pat themselves on the back?
Xu Xianyu breathed a sigh of relief and hid behind Lin Mo:
"I'm relieved that they didn't intend to harm us sisters. Also, please remember what you said."
Lin Mo's lips curled slightly, her eyes fixed on Han Qi:
"Everyone knows that the women are taking a bath in this bathhouse, and you, Han Qi, are here. Whatever your purpose is, you owe an explanation."
After all, you wouldn't be here if you didn't have ill intentions.
Seeing the drastic change in the expressions of the Han mother and son, Lin Mo's sarcasm deepened:
"so……"
She looked at Xu Wuyan, who was walking towards them:
"Tell me, how should we handle this?"
"Leave it to me." Xu Wuyan nodded to her, then walked towards Han Qi.
Madam Han tensed up, spreading her arms to shield her son as she retreated.
"What...what do you want to do?"
In comparison, Madam Han was more afraid of Xu Wuyan.
Xu Wuyan didn't even glance at her. "If you don't want your other hand to be crippled as well, then keep blocking me."
Madam Han's body stiffened.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xu Wuyan quickly grabbed Han Qile by the collar and dragged him into the house.
He doesn't bully younger people, so he can only turn to elders.
"Let go of me!" Han Qi was dragged away, his face filled with terror.
"Mother, mother, save me!"
Madam Han snapped out of her daze and hurriedly chased after him:
"Xu Wuyan, stop right now! Let go of my son! Do you hear me?"
"Let him go, he's your cousin."
……
Those who had come to watch the spectacle, seeing that the excitement had moved inside, followed them in.
Soon, Han Qi's screams echoed from inside the house.
Xu Xianyu showed no sympathy whatsoever. He grinned, spat, and then cursed:
"Deserved it."
“That’s right, he deserved it.” Xu Mengxian said excitedly.
Then he looked at Lin Mo with admiration:
"Sister-in-law, you're so smart. You saw through his plan in advance, otherwise my sister and I would have been in big trouble."
This time, it really disgusted her.
When Granny Qin told her to hurry up and finish washing and getting dressed, she didn't believe what Granny Qin was saying.
She originally wanted to take her time showering and relax her body.
But as soon as she heard it was her sister-in-law who said it, she immediately rinsed herself off and came out.
Then we heard someone throwing stones in our direction.
Granny Qin told her to hide in the kitchen, while she pretended to go and see what was going on, cursing all the while.
As soon as Granny Qin left, Han Qi appeared furtively.
She was furious. She couldn't even take a proper shower; everything was full of scheming. She wanted to rush up and beat up the Han family.
Lin Mo shook her head. "Be more careful in the future, and don't believe everything you hear. On the road to exile, you'll encounter all sorts of monsters and demons."
The Xu family has already begun to make its mark, and in the future, more and more people will want to establish a connection with them.
All she could say was that Han Qi was quite clever.
She sensed something was wrong when she saw Han Yulong leading a group of younger members of the Han family out, but her own older brother was nowhere to be seen.
Suddenly, she remembered hearing in her past life that the Han family wanted to scheme against the Xu family's daughter, so she became more cautious.
All she can say now is that some people will die if they don't court disaster.
Xu Xianyu nodded seriously, "Sister-in-law, I will listen to you from now on."
Sister-in-law, I won't hurt her.
“Me too, I’ll listen to my sister-in-law too,” Xu Mengxian quickly agreed. Her sister-in-law was not only a good person, but also smart.
Lin Mo rolled her eyes and looked at Granny Qin and Granny Yun:
"Granny, it's late. You should wash up and go back to sleep. We have to travel tomorrow."
Granny Qin nodded, telling them to go back and rest first, and that they would return after they finished washing.
Lin Mo nodded and turned to go back.
After walking a few steps, I saw Old Wei leaning against the wall.
Meanwhile, from a house not far away, heart-wrenching screams could be heard.
Lin Mo raised an eyebrow. Xu Wuyan was ruthless; he was much more hateful than her.
"Can't you Xu family members cause me less trouble?" Old Wei said, feeling a headache coming on.
Even taking a shower can cause her endless commotion.
Sure enough, one is beholden to those who feed them and indebted to them.
Having drunk her wine and eaten her flesh, it seems somewhat unfair to hold a grudge against her for the meat we ate and the wine we drank.
Lin Mo sighed, "Master Wei, I'm innocent."
Isn't this just because they're bored and want to add some fun for everyone?
"Master Wei, they love to perform, how can we not grant their wish?"
Old Wei twitched the corner of his mouth and turned to walk into the house.
He was afraid he would get angry if he kept going on like that.
Lin Mo chuckled, her eyes narrowing. This Master Wei was becoming more and more interesting.
So, whose man is he?
Enemy or friend?
Was he the one the Empress ultimately arranged for?
